Anxious about starting school, Pascaline shrinks her parents (accidentally!) and then decides to bring them along to her first day--where instead of being a comfort, they drive her crazy!
Charming and laugh-out-loud funny, this irresistible first-day of school saga is going to be a repeat read!
Pascaline (a bat) DOES NOT WANT to go to school. It doesn't matter who else is going! She knows exactly what she doesn't want. "Never, Not Ever!" she shrieks loudly on the first day. So loudly, in fact, that something amazing happens and it changes everything.
